I just got a pair of slightly used (70%+) Goodyear GS-C 285/40/17 mounted and balenced for only $70 So I am stoked cause man were the old ones bald, I used to clench my butt everytime I saw a puddle Anyway, is it me or do these look narrow for a 285/40? I didnt think a tire that size could fit on the wheel but they looked like they were made for them

Edit: I just looked online and these things are $429 each
